About CFIN
Trading software that runs on your own account
CFIN builds and licenses Project Iris, algorithmic trading software that places trades on your own MetaTrader 5 account at your own broker. You keep the account, the money and the controls.
Who is behind it
CFIN is a trading name of MODULO C, a company in Belgium. Registered address: Rue Florémond 67, 1325 Chaumont-Gistoux, Belgium. Enterprise number (CBE): 1037.081.042. VAT number: BE1037081042. We are a software company. We are not a broker, we do not hold your money and we do not give investment advice. CFIN is not a regulated financial institution.
How it works
- You open a RAW account at a supported broker, in your own name, and fund it.
- You connect it to CFIN. The software runs on CFIN servers, in its own container for your account, so there is nothing to install and no VPS to run.
- You choose the limits it works inside: a risk level, a maximum drawdown and the share of each winning day the vault sets aside. You can change them from your account.
Three engines run side by side, each deciding its own trades. Mainly forex, gold and stock indices. The published trade log lists every instrument traded. A portfolio-level guardian sits above all three and applies your limits to them together.
- Expert Advisor (EA)
- A fully automated trading algorithm that runs on MetaTrader 5. Yours runs on CFIN’s servers, not on your computer.
- RAW account
- A RAW account is a broker account type with raw spreads plus a separate commission on each trade. CFIN’s software is set up for the Raw account only, at 1:100 leverage; on any other account type the instrument names differ and it would look for instruments that do not exist there.
- Drawdown
- Your maximum drawdown is a daily limit: if the software’s own trades lose that much in one trading day, it closes its positions and opens nothing new until the next trading day. The limit is measured as a percentage of your effective balance at the start of the day — your balance minus your vault, because vaulted profit is not trading capital.
- The Vault
- On profitable days, a percentage of your gains is set aside in the Vault. The vault is profit set aside in your own broker account. The trading software does not size trades on it, but it stays in that account and can be reduced by the account's losses until you withdraw it. It goes down when you withdraw, and it is shown only up to the balance actually in the account. Withdrawals come out of your vault first.
Why it is built this way
- Your money stays with your broker. The software can place trades on your account. It cannot withdraw or move money.
- A licence fee linked to profit. A one-time activation fee starts the software; after that you pay 20% of your account's profit in each billing month, with a €25 minimum when the month was profitable, and nothing when it was not.
- You set the limits. Risk level, maximum drawdown and vault share are yours, picked from short lists, and you can stop the software at any time.
- No result is promised. Nothing is guaranteed, past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results, and you can lose your entire deposit.
